I've decided that I'm going to make the switch to TY media the next time I order (-R most likely) and I was wondering where other people buy theirs from and what kind of prices they get so I know where to look. They seem to be dropping in price the way Riteks did a year ago.

They need to be consistently TY discs (ie no brands that sometimes use TY and sometimes use other media). I don't need anything faster than 4x media, but feel free to post prices for faster media so other people can benefit from it. Since I'm switching I decided I should try to convince as many other people as possible to do the same so the prices will keep coming down ;)

I have burnt about 400 of these and have 200 more on the way right now. I have never seen any flaws on any of them. I have never had one coaster or even one bad burn. I kprobe them to check them all.

100 8x discs for $50

These same discs were $55 dollars a few days ago.

Here are same disk $48 I have bought from both Rima & Supermediastore You just have to look around a little. The main Difference is Rima Charges about $6 for shipping & Supermedia is free shipping. So you need to add that shipping charge also. So you could save about $8 going with Supermedia. Just a thought for the thrifty.. :-)

Supermedia is free shipping
Supermedia ONLY has free shipping on select items which DOES NOT include Taiyo Yudens. As a matter of fact, they charge me an extra $1.50 MORE for shipping than Rima when I added them to my cart.

Items with the icon next to their names mean they qualify for FREE GROUND SHIPPING
It has to have the delivery truck icon to qualify for free ground shipping.

I just recently purchased from www.supermediastore.com myself (8x silver) and shipping was not free, everything came to 60 with shipping. So 60 cents per dvd for something that I know will play and continue to perform..... I'm a happy man. Will continue to use this SMS.com until I find something a little cheaper. These are great disks.
